  1. #MakeShitMonday, in which we playtest the #crochet water balloons! *SPLAT*

    You've heard of 99 luftballons... But how about 55 garnballons? 😁

    Between travel home from Punta Cana, an unexpected project day on Monday, and #CackalackyCon this weekend, I now have 55 balloons done! One for each kid in the school.

    I couldn't in good conscience send these off without making sure they performed as desired... And it's 90°F in Durham today... So I recruited @mbroome for a quick water balloon fight in the front yard. 😇 Definitely a good toy! (Also he has much better aim than I do. 😊)

  2. #MakeShitMonday, #Meshtastic edition...

    I got a Heltec V3 Meshtastic radio a few weeks ago to experiment with at #CackalackyCon. I set it up and did initial config with a naked board, but I didn't want to carry it around that way, so I ended up #3DPrinting a case that was designed for this board.

    Had to print with supports to get the structure and shapes to print well. After cleaning all of the support material off - including the one bit I originally missed that was keeping the board from seating correctly - it all fit together nicely. I really like how it turned out!
